Aloha Airlines tickets?
 

I am not able to connect to a live person at Aloha Airlines. I have 3 interisland tickets for May. What should I do? Will another airline honor them or should I just call Amex and dispute charge. Should I book another airline. Are Hawaiian and Island Air solid?

Their website has very helpful information -

I called United; they told me I was able to purchase a regular priced ticket from them. They will only help if one booked the Aloha air flight through United. The Hawaiian air reservationist said they would only book a full price ticket for a flight for May. No one is honoring Aloha air tickets booked through Aloha air! Does anyone know another Aloha phone number I am not able to get through on their 800 number? Any and all suggestions to help resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Chances are... you are out of luck. They don't HAVE to honor the tix.

This info is on the home page of Island Air.
